Happy to have this wrapped up. This guitar is a graduation gift for our granddaughter. The headstocks inlay was done by a friend Karen Trickett featuring a ladybug which was our granddaughter’s first Halloween costume.
Overall pretty happy with the results however the finish provided some challenges that I will post about separately.
Cheers
